Chapter 5: Chapter One: Game Over… not. Part 5
I nodded to myself as I saw this and went to confirm that there was indeed no one. When that was done I decided to start creating the skills I needed and went to start with the ones I would use to deliver damage. I began with the most basic one but the one that I was sure was going to be the strongest for quite some time. I gathered mana in the palm of my hand and focused into a ball. I ignored the message box telling me that I created Mana Sphere. I then focused on the core and began to slowly make the energies within the ball spin in multiple direction at the same time. I realized this wouldn't have been possible had I not acquired the Mana Manipulation skill because I was focusing very hard on this even if I knew I was taking the correct steps on developing this technique. A few minutes later the technique was complete and I was surprised to see that it looked exactly like the Rasengan.
A skill has been created through a special act. The skill 'Spiraling Mana Sphere' has been created.
Spiraling Mana Sphere. Active. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. A close range technique developed by 'The Gamer' based on past experiences. Mana is focused on the palm of the hand and is forced to spin in multiple directions while at the same time maintaining the shape of a perfect sphere. 50% Defense penetration. 1000% of INT Damage when taking a direct hit. Cost: 200 MP.
The first thing I did after I used the newly created skill to destroy a nearby tree was too rename it to 'Rasengan'. After that I began to analyze its properties and found out that I was now a direct hit from Rasengan would cause 330 damage which was quite a lot considering I was only level 3 –almost 4. The cost was fairly accurate since a technique that powerful needed a large supply of Mana and since I as planning on using it as a finisher then I didn't have an issue with its high cost.
Then it came the mid-range technique. I focused mana into the palm of my hand and built it there until I felt it was sufficient energy. A drew my hand back before I threw it forward and released my hold on the energy I had built up as my hand came forward. A blast of spread mana was released from my hand and it forward loosing force the further it went until the energy dispersed into the air.
A skill has been created through a special act. The skill 'Mana Blast' has been created.
Mana Blast. Active. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. A close to mid-range technique developed by 'The Gamer'. The user focuses mana into the palm of their hand and it is released as hand is pushed forward towards the enemy. The longer the technique goes the weaker it becomes. 100% of INT Concussive Damage. 20% chance of causing the 'Stunned' ailment. Range: 10 Meters. Cost: 20 MP.
After that skill was created and I used it to almost upturn a small three from its roots I went and developed the Spinning Mana Arrow skill. It was fairly easy and it cost an insignificant amount compared to Rasengan and Mana Blast. I directed the arrow I created and pierced the three I had used Mana Blast on previously. I looked towards the part of my HUD that marked how much MP I had left and I still had more than 80% and it was already refilling. I wasn't filling tired either so I forgone a break and continued developing the skills I had set myself to develop.
The defensive skills were next.
Iron Skin. Active/Passive. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. A defensive technique developed by 'The Gamer' based on past experiences. The user coats their body in a layer of mana that it's absorbed into the skin passively strengthening it. The defensive properties of Iron Skin will stack up as the user keeps supplying mana into the skin. Cost: 30 MP.
Mana Shield. Active. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. One of the most basic defense skills using mana. Handling the energy called mana has existed for a long time, and mana shield is one among many. Blocks a portion of the damage depending on the INT and the max amount of mana the user has and the power of the attack that it's attempted to be blocked. Cost: 40 MP. Maintenance Cost: 60 MP.
The moment I developed Iron Skin I realized it was a long term type of skill due to its stacking up feature and that suited me perfectly and I was sure I was going to get very fond of the technique. I wasn't too worried about the immense cost of Mana Shield since it will lower as I grinded it up until the point bringing it forward would be the only costly thing. After I was done developing the defensive skills I went ahead and created the support skills.
Weapon Creation. Active. Lvl Max. A technique developed by the gamer to create solid weapons from mana. The usefulness of this technique will depend on the knowledge and imagination of the user. Weapons created through this skill will not have a set durability but instead will remain for as long as the user keeps feeding mana to the weapon created. Cost: 40 MP to create weapon. 10 MP per minute to maintain weapon created.
High Speed Movement. Active. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. A technique developed by 'The Gamer' based on past experiences. The user focuses mana on their legs and takes a step as he releases the built up mana in a bursts making them reach incredible speeds for as long as that step reaches. With enough experience the user can easily break the sound barrier with this technique. Cost per step: 10 MP.
After I created something that was as close as I was going to get to Flash Step or Sonido –I'm so glad its cost is insignificant! I recalled two other skills that were very useful. The first one was directly involved with what I decided was going to be my main weapon of choice: Swords. The second one however made me apprehensive for what I needed to do create it but Gamer's Mind did its thing and made me convince myself that it was necessary to further myself towards my goals. Using Weapon Creation I created a generic double edged one handed sword and gave it a few swings against a tree slashing it deeply until a message box appeared. The sword disappeared in blue particles of light as I read the new message.
A skill has been created through a special act. The skill 'Sword Mastery' has been created.
Sword Mastery. Passive. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. Allows user to freely handle any type of swords. 5% increase in attack damage with swords. 5% increase in attack speed with swords.
I dismissed the message box with a wave of my hand before sighing and groaning at what I was going to do next. I walked forward towards one of trees and prepared myself mentally to what I was about to do. Gamer's Mind helped a lot and after the fifth time I took a deep breath I reared my hand back, curled into a fist and punched the tree with all my strength without using mana. I cried out in agony as I felt the bones of my hand breaking and my wrist dislocating. I cradled my hand and noticed through teary eyes that while I felt the effects of me punching the tree my hand did not break nor my wrist was dislocated but my HP had dropped by almost a 10%. A few seconds later the pain stopped and a new message box appeared.
A skill has been created through a special and stupid act. The skill 'Physical Endurance' has been created.
Physical Endurance. Passive. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. The body's durability increases, allowing for less damage taken. 2% decrease in damage taken by attacks.
I decided to call it a day after I was finished creating the support skills. I have been at it for more than three hours and my mana pool was almost depleted with less than ten percent of it remaining but I still had enough mana for the final skill I was going to create that day. I focused mana into my hand and raised it high in the sky before telling it to take me out of the place it had created and to deliver me back to where I had come from. Ten minutes later everything around me broke as if it was made off glass and all the damaged I had caused to the park disappeared as if it hadn't been there on the first place.
A skill has been created through a special act. The skill 'ID: Escape' has been created.
ID: Escape. Active. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. Used to escape instant dungeons.
Looking up to the sky I realized that it was already tinted a slightly dark orange meaning that night was nearing and it was time for me to return home. Tomorrow I will come back to grind my skills as much as I could because the day after tomorrow I will be doing some undead hunting.
(You must be thinking right now: OhmygawdOhmygawdOhmygawdOhmygawd! He is back! THE man is back! He will update his older stories! Especially DEN! YES! WOHOO!
Sorry to burst your bubbles but I don't think I'll be writing Deus Ex Naruto. It doesn't really have a direction and it was just a lemon fest… which it isn't bad per see but I guess I just wanted something more meaningful in my writes.
So I came up with this. I became enamored with the concept of The Gamer and I have recently read all the volumes on the High School DxD light novels. So I decided to do a Pseudo SI OC as Issei with the gamer abilities. It will be a story filled with action –badassery on the main character's part, romance –a lot of lemons because I am still a pervert and whatever I come up with.
I'll be posting a 'Character Sheet' on a different story with each chapter so you can keep track of the main character's progress each chapter which I promise will always be significant. This sheets will describe the stats of the main character at the end of each chapter along with all the skills, details and their currente levels. You'll se what I mean. No go en read the next installment. I'll try to post 3 chapters a month at least but I make no promises but you should at least get two chapters.)
